Speaking during the signing ceremony was managing director and CEO of Public Bank Tan Sri Dato’ Sri Dr. Tay Ah Lek said, “Perodua is also Malaysia’s first and biggest Energy-Efficient Vehicle (EEV) manufacturer. On our part, supporting the growth of the EEV industry is a key pillar of the Bank's climate agenda, where Public Bank has mobilised over RM30 billion in domestic EEV financing by the end of 2022.”
“Thus, there is strong synergistic potential where Public Bank and Perodua can continue to work together, in not only growing our respective business, but also contributing positively toward ESG initiatives for the betterment of our society and the world,” the CEO added.
Also present during the signing ceremony was Perodua president and CEO Dato’ Sri Zainal Abidin Ahmad, who expressed his gratitude to Public Bank for providing these services, which will directly address the need for the current and future Perodua activities.
“I hope this collaboration will further elevate our respective organisations to greater heights,” Dato’ Sri Zainal commented.

“As part of our ongoing commitment to supporting the growth of the EEV industry, Public Bank has increased its EEV lending target from RM25 billion to RM33 billion by 2025,” Tan Sri Dato’ Sri Dr. Tay Ah Lek said.
